Bling Is Still King

Brides may be opting for softer gown styles, embellished with lace and appliques rather than crystals, rhinestones and heavy beading, but we find that they still want to bring in some bling. Accessories are a fabulous way to keep a little sparkle with your wedding day look without letting it overwhelm your entire wedding design. At Stardust, we pride ourselves on providing the best that the industry has to offer. From timeless classics to the hottest trends, we’ve got you covered. With that, we present to you some of the fun ways we’ve been helping our brides incorporate this dazzling trend!

We love these amazing blinged out cowgirl boots for brides. These are perfect for the bride who wants to bring in a little glam country to her big day!

Some moms are even going for this golden-toned version!

Belts are another trend staying strong and can be a great option for incorporating a little bling.

They are also very flattering, showing off a bride’s lovely figure!

Hair accessories are always in style, and we love these bejeweled options; they are stunning with a less adorned gown!

Jewelry is always a great way to bring in some glitz, and it works beautifully with an understated gown!

And don’t forget about shoes and clutches! These glamorous offerings are just what the fashionista ordered!

Last but not least, we now have these darling blinged out hangers – perfect for the glam bride on her wedding day!

Stop in Stardust Bridal Salon soon to see what bit of bling you can bring to your special day!

These sandals, constructed by hand right here in Dallas, feature the finest crystals, platforms and elements imported from around the world. Founder Nanci Schwind recognizes that there are more than a few companies producing overly expensive, “blinged out” shoes in today’s marketplace. She created Scandalous Designs with the clear objective to be superior in design, quality and value. With a background spanning 15 years of product development, retail and manufacturing experience, she is confident that the company and its products fill a niche in the market, providing sophisticated sandals of the highest quality at an attractive price point.

Come in and check out these cute and comfortable bridal flip flops with just a touch of bling!

Trend Alert: Bridal Gown Bling

As we forecast for you here, bling is king in bringing texture to bridal gowns. Ostentatious glitz is HUGE for 2012. This look is especially impactful when paired with a simple fitted skirt; case in point is this glamorous gown from Lazaro, embellished with Swarovski crystals and mother of pearl:

We love this gown! Here is the front and back, full length – absolutely phenomenal, isn’t it?!

Here are a few other heavily beaded styles with a slim silhouette:

Simone Carvalli

 This bodice style is also fabulous with unadorned fuller skirts, quite the baroque look. Check out at some of these stunning options!
